Former stables and coach house to Dyffryn, dated 1862. Dyffryn was built for Howel Gwyn in 1853-5, apparently to his own design, and demolished in the 1930s as unsold in 1927. This complex is an unusual Tudor Gothic range with low side wings, possibly also designed by Howel Gwyn.
Lofted stables and former coach house wings at right angles, rock-faced Pennant stone with slate roofs. Main range has coped shouldered gables and close-eaved roof. Tall two storeys with centre Tudor-arched broad entry with rock-faced stone voussoirs and deep hoodmould, under stone-faced circular clock. Large first floor segmental-pointed window of three lights breaking eaves in steep centre gable with eroded date plaque and metal weather-vane dated 1862. To each side are small similar shouldered gables over narrow eaves-breaking single light windows with cambered heads. Glazing replaced in C20 conversion to flat, thin glazing bars with diagonal bars to top panes. Ground floor each side of centre has two large cambered-headed windows with C20 glazing. All windows have rock-faced stone surrounds and flush sills. A small C20 window is inserted under eaves to left.
The two single-storey ranges coming forward are altered but appear to have been coach houses, left one has painted-brick later infill between original stone piers, the right one has similar rock-faced rubble stone walling to left with cambered-headed door and window with 2-light glazing, then a broad coach-entry infilled in stone with glazing under timber lintel.
Not inspected.
Included for its special architectural interest as a Victorian estate stable and coach-house range in Tudor Gothic style for a prominent Neath industrialist.
